@Sweet May Now that the rules have been added, should I remove the sprite from my last post? (Because it is now breaking the rules) Or is it okay because it was posted before the rules were in place?

It can stick around because of these new rules.

@:::...Scizor...::: As long as you don't edit the first post unless you have some important reason to, your Lugia stall stay alive~ \o/ Oh and welcome to SPPF where breaking a rule equals the same pain as being electrocuted! (well not really but it hurts inside ): ) Great rainbow animation though! The dark colors go well with black indeed. How do you guys even get to make sprites all rainbow-animated?!

@lucarioisawesome Use shades of brown (mostly the dark ones), dark orange or gray to give it that rocky look, lol. You may also change the white slush to some rough and rocky body. You're not a noob spriter, just need a bigger imagination!

@Sweet May: Thanks for welcoming me, I should stick around for a while. To make shades change, I had to recolor the Tentacruel a lot of times for each shade of red blue and green and the in-betweens.

@lucarioisawesome: For a rock type Vanilluxe, all it takes is imagination. Practice makes perfect, so first look at how rocks are shaded, and then take that into account to create rocks in scratch form. Here is a good tutorial on shading.[/url]

Consider this your first strike, as you must read the rules where it states you can only post one sprite per page.

As for the fusion itself, as PokeHunter said, the color palette needs work. Besides that, it just looks more like copy and pasting parts. Perhaps you should've recolored Registeel and the arms to Duskull colors. The mask just looks awkward there... xD

On the topic of rainbow animated sprites, I tried out a hueshift type animation. I heard Jasc Animation Shop takes less than one step to make images all rainbow-y but lacking the program, I'm stuck with ImageReady. XP Uh what do you guys think?

That looks pretty good, but the transition from blue to purple looks a little odd. Also, try to make it fade back into the original color, as right now it seems odd when it returns to the begining of the animation.

@Proby3 For a first 100% scratch repose, it is very impressive. The idea is very creative. Though the position of the right leg should be shorter. The muzzle seems disordered in comparision to its face. The eyes are too narrow and the head should be smoothen. The right side of the moustache should be nearer to the nose and the left should be a tad higher. My sincere apologies if I was too harsh.

I need help with a custom trainer sprite. Currently it's a work in progess, I sincerly hope it does not violate the rules.
It's a custom trainer sprite of this. http://fav.me/d3k5lah
I'm having difficulties with the scarf, the jacket and the boots. The character is meant to be floating. Both the scarf and jacket are meant flow out, but it is a lot harder than I had expected. As for the boots the upper parts do not turn out the way I had expected.
Guidelines would be highly appreciated.

And on Oshawott/Dewott/Samurott, all of their shells are detachable. That big one on his head is like a massive club in the form of a conch shell.

Really? I didn't know that! Thats kinda cool.

@.:~Northen*Light*Suicune: Sorry, I have little knowledge of trainer spriting. I suggest making the boots a darker color, as they seem to blend in with his pants. I can't help you with the scarf or jacket, sorry

I know it's not finished, but I'm going to treat it as if it were. Just because I have trouble getting myself in the right mindset.

Put a little more shading on the scarf. It just looks like a flat color from what I can see. (in fact, once I examined it, I see that it actually is just a flat color) Other than that, the pants and boots are the same color. Make the boots more brown instead of puke green color. Also, once you're done with the outline on the pants, make sure you make it the right color according to the light source. The pants also need some shading toward the shadow, and the fact that you even included a shadow indicates that there is a strong light source. Make sure you emphasize that.

Now, here's a piece of art by me. Made this, but never entered it in the contest I did it for:

C&Cs would be appreciated. Just a simple recolor, but I really like how it turned out.

actually samurott takes off his swords on his arms, not the one on his head. I know this from the 3DS pokedex thing X3

Agreed, I don't know about the head shell being a weapon; I think it's really a helm, just as his legs have greaves (the foreleg ones doubling as sheathes for his swords).

I'm sorry, were you expecting some kind of epic signature here?

Current works:A Modern Atlantis- Bioshock/Doctor Who crossover (FINALLY WRITING CHAPTER 3! Will post soon!)
-When a perfectly mundane trip to the ocean floor causes the Doctor and his companions to discover an underwater city, they find a utopia that is anything but. (Rated PG-14 for language and violence)

Northern Light, that is really good. the only thing i would like to point out is that i think you need some shading on the pants, and that the shadow doesnt look like its coming from the guy. other then that its great.

It's a pretty good re-type, but I'd like to see more scratching. Like maybe the smoke. Instead of CPing from Torkoal (and I could be wrong), maybe scratch it?

Anyway, glad to see this thread, because I can never keep up a gallery. But here's my latest. Garbodor/Reuniclus fusion.

C+C? I know there's like no shading but that's how Garbodor's bag cloak and Reuniclus' body are; there's literally like no shading almost besides teh outlines. That's what i liked about this cuz I hate shading :P
